Sweet Corn Pudding 5 Steps to Ultimate Deliciousness

Sweet Corn Pudding is a beloved classic that has graced the tables of American homes for generations. This comforting dish showcases the natural sweetness and texture of fresh corn, blended seamlessly with a rich, creamy custard-like base.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme (or 1/3 teaspoon dried thyme)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cup fresh corn kernels (or 2 cup canned whole kernel corn, drained)
  • 1 cup cream-style corn
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

1. 1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or a large casserole dish.

2. 2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, baking powder, thyme, salt, dried mustard, onion powder, pepper, and nutmeg.

3. 3. In a blender or food processor, combine the eggs, heavy cream, half of the whole kernel corn, and all of the cream-style corn. Blend until mostly smooth, leaving a bit of texture.

4. 4. Pour the blended mixture into a large mixing bowl. Stir in the remaining whole kernel corn, melted butter, and the dry ingredient mixture until just combined.

5. 5. Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish and smooth the top. Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.

6. 6. Allow the Sweet Corn Pudding to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

For the most vibrant flavor, opt for fresh, in-season corn. If using canned corn, be sure to drain it well before incorporating.

Experiment with the sugar amount to find the perfect balance of sweetness that suits your preferences.
